I mean some people just go on and on. The leading Democrats in Congress are not willing to do anything about it. Some say they can not do anything, but the facts are they are not even trying.

So my main question is, do you think the people who go on about Bush being impeached should just shut up already and help elect the next president? I mean we are talking less then a year to the next election. I would think it is time to look ahead, instead of the past. As for today, Bush could not pass gas without help, I doubt if he could pass any legislation on his own. So, comments?

"Carter’s United Nations Ambassador Andrew Young expressed the thinking of many liberals at the time when he stated that, if successful, Khomeini would "eventually be hailed as a saint."

I'm pretty educated (Bachelor's degree) and I'm pretty active in Politics as well...

But I have a heck of a time trying to explain the EC to my friends and family...

Even the Wikipedia page is kind of cryptic on the matter.

Help please?

The Republicans will not fix abortion... Because,, then why would anyone vote for them. Democrats will not fix education.. then why would anyone vote for them.. The 2 parties leave us bickering about small meaningless stuff that they don't care about. The big decisions are made without our vote. Like going to war. The small stuff doesn't effect their bottom line.. Where the money goes. What do you think?

I do!! I constantly witness pro-lifers saying that abortion is wrong and it's murder. Through science and by law abortion is NOT constituted as murder. I don't view or analyze abortion morally, I analyze abortion matters scientifically.
Many people argue that if a person kills a pregnant woman that the person will be charged with double homicide. This is true. But do people realize that the courts have to PROVE that the child took a breath before the charging the person with double homicide?!
Abortion usually occurs during the early stages of pregnancy where the fetus has not even taken a breath. So by this, abortion is not murder and the doctors who perform abortions are not murderers.
Also, if abortion was murder, wouldn't it be illegal since, murder is against the law?

Do you think, if the whole world, adopts a form of equality, where no one is above another and social classes are abolished throughout the world, it would ideal? Do you think if corporations were eliminated and everyone was given basic resources, it would be ideal? Do you think if ordinary people were involved in the government's decisions, it would be ideal? Do you think if the government was under scrutiny to make sure they were equally distubuting resources and not plotting against the people, it would ideal? Do you think, if there were survellience cameras everywhere to prevent people from commiting crimes and making sure everyone was working, it would ideal?

..."Planet of the apes" & todays "virtual reality movie" which I have elected to call..."Planet of the politicians"(magicians!)? I mean could one imagine president Bush & Ann Coulter on horse back in the very last scene of "Planet of the politicians", which would be a copy of the original film but with all the ape actors replaced with politicians, & with a direct remake of the last scene in "Planet of the apes"? Ya could "spice" it up for a more dramatic effect by replacing both president Bush & Coulter with former president Carter & speaker Nancy Pelosi, WHOOOPS, I mean Joshlyn Elders(minority preference here, ya gotta be PC ya know!) for some real acting! Ya got any other suggestions for politicians to play the lead roles???

Jesus spoke of nothing else except how one should care for others .
There is the camel through an eye of a needle thing and anyone who helps the least of my brothers helps me .

Through marriage two families become joined as the husband and wife become one flesh in Jesus eye .

I wonder did Jesus collect a fee for his medical services .

Christianity is the largest socialist movement in the world if the people truly believe .


Or is it just a club to join to network and conduct business .

That socialists like Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Kim, Castro to name a few. Make grand promises of free health care, equality of the masses and the distruction of evil corporations. Only to kill the very people that voted for them after they are elected, or supported their coup to power.

Just a thought?

If not, they why is it okay to stomp out a growing babies life? Do pro-abortionists understand this poem?

Pretty Butterfly, Don't Cry

Like stepping on a butterfly
Who is wet and cannot fly,
And on the sidewalk, trying to dry,
Knowing rain, the reason why
That its own beauty could not shine
Until the tears of God's great sky
Would set it free, so sparkles climb,
And come to shallow human eyes.
But so, it never did arrive,
That its life could live, but died.
And all that flashed within its mind,
Was that love didn't come this time,
As the whim of foot declined.
Oh, don't cry, pretty butterfly!
Your life, snuffed out, not defined!
Never mind. Go ahead and cry.

As a follow up:

Would you support a politician if his policy position included the criminalization of abortion but also mandates a 15% mandatory increase in federal taxation to support state-run orphanges/academies.

Foster care programs, overidden with abuse as they are, would be ended and the state would take direct control. For orphans or the children of convicted criminals, this would be the first alternative.

Curriculum would include academic courses of study and vocational/technical courses of study. For interested applicants, paramilitary training could also be integrated into their education for law-enforcement/military career aspirations (e.g the Boy Scouts, Eagle Scouts etc).

Would you support that?
